Virtuoso Alto Saxophones

Virtuoso alto saxophones

Description

The saxophone has come a long way since its invention in 1846 and the craftsmanship of the Virtuoso Series builds upon the traditions of vintage saxophone artisans who pioneered its design. With input from such luminaries as Tim Ries (The Rolling Stones, Maria Schneider) and legendary jazz saxophonist, Michael Brecker, Virtuoso saxophones produce a rich, singing tone that has clarity, power and depth. Its full bodied sound has an authority that cuts while having the ability to express the most intimate ballad with ease. The ergonomically contoured balanced key action provides comfort and increased efficiency to the most demanding professionals, while offering a near seamless transition for vintage saxophone enthusiasts. Virtuoso saxophones are available in seven unique finishes and feature elegant engraving.
